Can you use vip check-in if one non-vip room?

Thanks for all of the replies. My kids will be 13 and 15, so yes they will be minors. We are paying the bills for all. And our reservations are linked already. So I am hoping with all of this we shouldn't have a problem. We have an aft wrap which is a cat 11, now called a VS suite. Wish us luck!:)

Just to be clear on Carnival's policy, while "what you can get away with" may vary from port to port and person to person, the policy is as follows (with the obvious need to update the suite definitions from the old 11/12/SS to the current categories):

VIP Check-In Program

 

Carnival’s VIP Check-In is an exclusive service designed to afford our Platinum guests, Carnival Vacation Club members and those traveling in deluxe suite accommodations (categories 11/12/SS), with special registration privileges. Cruise tickets for Platinum guests and those traveling in deluxe accommodations will read, "Please proceed to VIP Check-In".

 

At the time of booking, you will need to instruct the travel agent or direct guest that the guest must ask for “VIP Check-In” upon arrival at the cruise terminal. Embarkation staff will ensure that the guests are expedited through the check-in procedure as quickly as is possible, while providing quality service.

 

We offer VIP Check-In at ALL embarkation ports.

 

Note: For those guests traveling with an additional stateroom that does not fall into one of the three categories above, the additional stateroom may check in through the VIP Program only if, 1) there are minor children traveling in the additional stateroom, or 2) the guests in the additional stateroom share the same Sail & Sign account with the qualified VIP guest.

I look at it as "what they allow":D

No...you should not have a problem at all. The kids keys will be with yours.
